“泡泡莓”英语怎么说

Not many people can get truly excited about the prospect of trying a new type of fruit. But a berry that resembles a small strawberry and tastes of bubblegum might just get Britons' taste buds tingling.

Bubbleberries – or Fragaria moschata - were popular in the 19th century but waned in popularity later. They have an incredibly familiar taste, which is much more likely to be found in a sweet shop than the fruit and vegetable aisle.

The bubbleberry could be used in any dessert as well as being chomped on alone.

能够因为尝试一种新的水果而激动不已的人并不多。但是,一种外形酷似小草莓,口味近似泡泡糖的浆果却刺激着英国人的味蕾。

泡泡莓又称麝香草莓,流行于19世纪,之后淡出大众视野。它们拥有让人感到不可思议的熟悉味道,这种味道在糖果店中可以闻到,在水果或蔬菜区的过道却并不多见。

泡泡莓可以用于任何甜点中,也可以单独咀嚼食用。

讲解

文中的bubbleberry就是“泡泡莓”的意思,这是一个合成词,由bubble(气泡)和berry(浆果)构成。文中的bubblegum的构词方式与此相同,即bubble(气泡)加上gum(粘性物质),解释为“泡泡糖”。以名词+名词构成的合成词还有很多,如:website(网站),homework(作业),basketball(篮球)等。

此外,文中resemble用作动词,解释为“与…相似;像”,注意这个词不用于进行时,也不用于被动结构。例:My brother resembles me in looks.(我弟弟和我长得很像。)
